[python-win32] Casting to a specific interface

[Mark Hammond]

I'm afraid IMAPIStatus isn't exposed via pywin32 - depending on your
patience, I could probably get it done within a week or so, maybe even in
time for build 208 :)

  I have a fairly basic question.
  I am trying to map a PyIUnknown interface to a specific (in this case
IMAPIStatus) interface. How do I do that?

  Here is what I have:

          import mapi, ...

          tab = self.session.GetStatusTable(0)
          rows = mapi.HrQueryAllRows(tab,
                                     (PR_ENTRYID, PR_RESOURCE_TYPE),   #
columns to retrieve
                                     None,     # all rows
                                     None,            # any sort order is
fine
                                     0)               # any # of results is
fine
          for row in rows:
              (eid_tag, eid), (res_tag, res_name) = row
          if res_tag == PR_RESOURCE_TYPE and res_name == 37:    #
MAPI_SPOOLER
                  stat = self.session.OpenEntry(eid, None,
mapi.MAPI_DEFERRED_ERRORS)
          stat.FlushQueues(None, None, 0x10)    # FLUSH_NO_UI

  FlushQueues() obviously requires a IMAPIStatus interface. The
documentation for OpenEntry() states that passing NULL should give me the
correct interface type.

  Thanks
